Marangu Route
Itinerary
The Coca-Cola Route
The Marangu Route, also known as the Coca-Cola route, is the oldest climbing route on Kilimanjaro. It is the only route that provides huts in dormitory-style accommodations instead of tent camping. Although it's possible to climb Marangu in only five days, we strongly recommend six days, to allow for acclimatization.
Duration: 6 Days
Season Range: January — December
Price Guide: Starting from $1,799 USD per person
Highlights:
Oldest route, Easy access, Least expensive, Hut accommodation
